Connie I told you, little girls ARE fighters!!! I nearly lost a 4 week old baby military macaw to a bad breeder who had lost 187 baby birds to a bacteria she passed around her nursery. I brought that baby home and WE fought!! Everyone kept telling me that when we got the DNA back that she was going to be a female. And they were right!! We almost lost her so many times. Right now, my baby is 16 months old and still a little spitfire!!! Your Eve/CassyAndra is going to be the same way! BELIEVE IT!!! Sending white light to surround you both!

First of all.....CassyAnndra is fine! I didn't want to worry everyone by starting out with the next statement. I just scared myself into tears! I've been feeding her every hour, 24/7 since 6 a.m. last Friday. Amy (my daughter) comes over for 2-3 hours each evening so spell me so I can get more than 20-30 min sleep all at once. Well, today, she came over in the afternoon so at 4:30, I laid down and went to sleep. I woke up at 8:00 with a start. First, I saw it was still light out, leading me to believe I had forgotten to set the alarm and I'd slept thru the night. Second, I reached into my bra but all I found in there was ME! I panicked and started searching the bed, tears already streaming down my face, because I thought I'd slept thru CassyAnndra crawling out of my bra AND at least 4 feedings! THEN.....I heard a noise in the other room. I opened the door to see Amy sitting there on the couch. I suddenly realized I'd only slept 3 1/2 hours, CassyAnndra was well taken care of and everything was ok. Then I cried tears of relief! Whew! Talk about an emotional roller coaster! CassyAnndra is still eating the full amount, peeing and pooping. Her poop is softer than before which is a good thing because it had been really hard. Keep the prayers and positive thoughts and white lights and candle lightings coming! We will not let her die. Our love will save her!!! I promise, I'll post pics and video as soon as I can get my head together.

Awww I've had instances where I've fallen asleep because I've worn myself out and woke up [censored] out and all confused. I'm so very glad she is ok and I'm sorry you had such a horrible scare. You are doing such a wonderful job with her and I KNOW she will grow to be a strong healthy glider with your dedication, love, and care ^_^

(SariYappa getting slapped on the wrist)... I'm sorry Gidget! I got caught up in the moment, and forgot all about you! Connie, I guess you are doing pretty well with the sleep deprivation if you ACTUALLY thought you slept that long! LOL (lots of bright white light shining through)

Guess what I figured out??? Halfway or 2/3 thru feeding, she gets tired, bored, or not interested. BUT, since I want her to eat the full cc, I discovered if I put the Karo syrup dropper under her nose, she smells it, thinks she's getting the "good" stuff and wakes up, with that little tongue searching a mile a minute for the dropper. Now, here comes the sneaky part.....the Karo syrup dropper has been replaced with the formula dropper! She eats about .01 cc before she realizes, "Hey, this doesn't taste like my nose thought it would!" I do the bait and switch thing til she finishes the whole cc! Shhhh! Don't let CassyAnndra know my secret! BTW, around six in the morning, she'll actually get the Karo for real after I sub-q her. Since she's "crashed" around 10 the last two mornings, I'm going to try to head off another one by doing the sub-q and Karo early. The last time I fed her, I held and stroked her after wards. We both loved it. I hoped it helped her de-stress. I can hardly wait to weigh her tomorrow. I'm positive she has gained at least a gram or two. She looks better and is bright-eyed! Another day, another battle won towards winning the war of CassyAnndra's survival. Thank you again, to everyone who is helping her survive each hour, with their love.

you're doing great with her Connie Wish I was closer so I could offer you some help/rest! One thing I have a question about, and I'm not sure if it's just in bigger animals, but when I was showing poms, there were a couple with hypoglycemia issues that needed to be given Karo, but I was always told to follow it up with a protein source (they most often used a jar of meat baby food..). I'm not sure if this is a valid concern or not with gliders, but I thought I'd mention it, just in case..

Well, another night time battle has been won. Now the day time battle begins. She doesn't want to eat. I am having to coax her. OK. I am INSISTING on her eating. Put in another call to Suz who suggested stretching out the feedings to up to 2 hours. Also suggested I feed her by putting formula in the palm of my hand. Thankfully, the last feeding, while slow and with continual coaxing/insisting, she got another cc in her. She also peed quite a bit and pooped a normal [censored] that wasn't so firm like she had been.
It shocks and terrifies me to see her so strong, active and alert one feeding, then the complete opposite the next feeding. I know she has a long way to go before she's able to be on her own when it comes to eating but it truly seems like forever. Honestly, if it took a year, I wouldn't mind one bit at all. The hard part comes from stressing over each and every feeding, pee, poop, movement and level of strength literally from minute to minute and not knowing the end result. If I had to do this the rest of her life, I would do so without a seconds hesitation, but not knowing if each feeding is her last, is the hardest part of this.
I love this little baby soooooo much! I will do whatever it takes, spend whatever it costs, learn whatever I need to know, to take care of her and make her life happy and healthy. I truly don't think she would be here if not for the prayers,positive thoughts and love from all of you. If love, will and determination can bring her thru this, she has a 100% chance of making it!

I thought I posted this earlier but in my sleep deprived state, I'm sure I overlooked it. CassyAnndra GAINED two grams since yesterday! She's back up to 22 grams! Suz suggested switching her to HPW because she pretty much refused the joey formula and at this age, if she were with mom and dad, she would be trying their food anyway. She LOVES the HPW and happily slurps it down. She is back to being super active. She refuses to stay in my bra and has enjoyed climbing under my shirt. She even played with my fingers once! I called the exotic vet and she said to break up the s-q into 2 times at half dose instead of one big dose, once a day. She was pleased with her good progress. So am I!

Tryne: I know, how can I do that to poor Gidget?? But Timmy was "on his own" for so long, I just plain ol forgot! (but come on, at least they must be kindred spirits, don't you think??) CassyAnndra is a great fighter, and it sounds like all the ups and downs were her way of just saying "lets get on with this mom!" and get to the real food! I hope so... I feel things are going to get exponentially better this week, so don't let me down!

I'm so glad she likes the HPW Great news on the weight gain!!! Thank YOU, for suggesting it! I thought the Wombaroo would be harmful to her so I never would have tried it on my own. She has had her 4th serving of HPW. The first 3, she ate .5 cc. The last serving, she ate .8!!!
